that belongs to the Democratic party, and
accord to the remainder of the party all the
impure?
But the Senator says that "he belieN es
in the supreme sacIedness Of the right to
kick" but he thinks cit shoald be re-
served and exercised only under extraor-
binary circumstances and for the most
unmistakable reasons" II the Senator can
show cOnclusiyely to his Democratic friends
that extraordinary circumstances and un-
mistakable reasons" exist sufficient to
warrant his kicking, " he may be excused,
but We Opine there may be some slight
trouble in convincing DEM Gratis that such
extraordinary and unmistakable reasons"
existed, for such Extraordinary and I'M
mistakable" kicking as the twelve" in
dulged in. Republicans may be induced
to believe that ample reasons existed for
this high and lofty "kicking" by the
twelve" but it will be remembered that
our Republican friends did not take much
stock in Kicking when one or two OF
their own members voted for a Democratic
U. s. Senator. They made the 'welkin
ring, " and soon forced their recalcitTant
Republicans back into the traces. Repub-
licans seem only to believe it right when
Democrats do the Kicking"
The Senatorial matter is in q muddle,
and how to extricate the party theretrom
is the problem; it may be difficult of sOlu-
ton. The "kickers" are free 10 caucus
among themselves, to try and devise ways
and means to compass their own ends, bat
when the Democratic party propose eau
Gus to select a Senator, then Mr.. Swltzer
and the other "kickerS" go back on the
''time-honOred usages" of the party and
want to discuss the question upon other
high moral grounds. Why are they so
anxious to leave out the ''time-honored
usages?' Does the shoe pinch? The
"kickers," with their supreme right to
"kick, d" have evolved Senator Lucas, by
appointment, and he was the head and
front of this kicking business" 1t will
be difficult, indeed, to make the Demo
Gratis Of this country believe otherwise,
than that he, by this appointment, re-
ceived his thirty pieces Of silver"
No; there is no funeral requiem yet to
be sung over the imminent dissolution ola
party that is immortal. We may lose
some of the "kickers," but the Democratic
party presents corpse entirely too lively
to be buried by the Republican party and
all its combined allies. You state that
You "believe in the Immortality OF the
principles of the Democratic party as you
believe in the Immortality of the soul. "
We believe you are honest in this drclara-
ton, and may we express the hope that
when the extra session of the Legislature
meets, the Democrats may dwell together
" peace and harmony, more firmly
cemented together by those very principles
in which you so implicitly believe. Our
candid advice to you and others would be
to guide your political barks' back to the
old land marks established by Jefferson,
the PROV ever turned to the ''time honOred
usages" of the party; the SNOWY, sails,
filled by the Immortal principles Of Democ-
racy, may we'll represent the flag of truce,
and harbingers OF victory.
